Answer:

The answer to your question is z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand                 42 = -7(z - 3)

                             42 = -7z + 21

Simplify                 7z = -42 + 21

                             7z = -21

Clear z                    z = \frac{-21}{7}

                              z = -3

42=-7z+21
42-21=-7z
21/-7=-7z/-7
-3=z

6x + 4y=10 12x + y= -29
Olin [163]

Answer: x=-3    y=7.

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle\\\left \{ {{6x+4y=10\ \ \ \ \ (1)} \atop {12x+y=-29\ \ \ \ (2)}} \right.\\  We\  multiply\  both\  sides\  of\  equation\  (1)\  by\  -2:\\\left \{ {{(-2)*6x+(-2)*4y=(-2)*10} \atop {12x+y=-29}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{-12x-8y=-20} \atop {12x+y=-29}} \right. \\We\  summarize\  equations\  (1)\  and\  (2):\\-7y=-49\\-7*y=-7*7\\Divide\  both\  sides\  of\  the\  equation\  by\  -7:\\y=7.\\We\  substitute\  the\  value\  of\  y\  into \ equation\  (1):\\6x+4*7=10\\6x+28=10\\6x+28-28=10-28\\6x=-18\\6*x=6*(-3)\\Divide\  both\  sides\  of\  the\  equation\  by\  6:\\x=-3.

A square pyramid is shown sitting on its base.
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Area of Pyramid = 384 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Square Pyramid

Base: 12 cm

Height: 10 cm

Required

The Surface area.

The surface area of the pyramid is calculated by

1. Calculating the area of the base square

2. Calculating the area of the triangles

3. Adding (1) and (2) above

Having highlighted these points,

Step 1: First we calculate the area of the base square

The dimension of the square is 12cm x 12cm

Let L represent the length of the square (L = 12 cm)

So, Area = L * L

Area = 12 cm * 12 cm

Area = 144 cm²

Step 2: There are four triangles in the above pyramid (because the base is a square; and a square has four sides)

The dimension of each triangle is

Base: 12 cm

Height: 10 cm

First, we calculate the area of one triangle

Area = 0.5 * base * height

Area = 0.5 * 12 cm * 10 cm

Area = 60 cm²

If the area of 1 triangle is 60 cm², the area of 4 triangles would be

Area = 4 * 60 cm²

Area = 240 cm²

Step 3: Adding (1) and (2) above

Area of Pyramid = Area of base square + Area of triangles

Area of Pyramid = 144 cm² + 240 cm²

Area of Pyramid = 384 cm²

Hence, the surface area of the pyramid is 384 cm²

The amount Lin's sister earns at her part-time job is proportional to the number
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

y = 9.6x

Yes, y is a function of x.

x =  \frac{5}{48} y

Step-by-step explanation:

For a proportional relation, the equation is given by:

y = kx

where k is the unit rate of change.

We were told that, Lin's sister earns $9.6 per hour.

This means k=9.6.

We substitute to get:

y = 9.6x

We could rewrite this as

y(x) = 9.6x

Yes, y is a function of x.

To obtain an equation describing x as a function of y, we solve for x to get:

x =  \frac{1}{9.6} y
